Whilst on one of my many trips up and down the WCML, I’ve spotted some work happening and I’m interested in what’s going on... It’s on the down-side of the WCML opposite the PRDC in Willesden. There appears to be a new or renewed spur coming off the Willesden Reliefs just before they dive under...

Evening All, Does anyone have any info or seating plans for the Chiltern MK3 Business Zone stock? I've been allocated A10F (odd in itself as I didn't think there were any reservations on Chiltern), and would like to know what seat this actually translates to. Cheers

Hi All Is Rugby to Birmingham New Street valid via either Lichfield or Tamworth? Thanks

Back in the days when VXC were in existence, how were the 220/221s divided between the two? Whilst the franchises were obviously self-contained, I seem to remember that Virgin seemed to treat it as one large operation and I'm wondering how the voyager fleet was allocated. Equally did the...

Hi All, I'm looking to seek your expert advice on ticketing between Rugby and North Berwick... Two of us are travelling on Saturday August 4th and returning on Saturday August 11th, both with Y-P railcards. Open tickets would be preferable to advances. I've had a look at splitting...

Evening all, Whilst leaving work today at Derby RTC, I was held up by an ex-Virgin BR MK2 being moved into the site on the back of an Allelys low loader. Anyone know where this was from and why it has been taken there?! Cheers

I was on the 0846 service from Rugby to Euston this morning and it was a double 221 set. Whilst walking down the platform at Euston I noticed that the front unit (didn't get the number) appeared to have two shops in it?! Would this be one of the four car units that was strengthened to five cars?

I gather from various sources that as part of the recent timetable change, the allocation of London Midland units to different routes has been played around with. An example of this is a 150 diagram on a service to Shrewsbury. This got me thinking of a few questions.... - Are 172s cleared to...

I'm currently onboard 390054 and have noticed that the now defunct entertainment modules found on all 220/221/390 sets between each pair of seats have been installed onto this new unit! Why on earth has money been spent putting them in when they're not used? I appreciate that the design of the...

Since when have XC HSTs been formed of only 6 coaches? I'm aware that 7 is/was the norm recently but at Tamworth just now, the northbound 1606 only had 6. Seems to have been missing coach B so presumably no onboard catering...

Hi All, Does anyone know if this section of track is still used by any current workings? (ECS/Freight?) For those who don't know it, its the section of track that connects the Cross-City line to the Camp Hill line in South Birmingham avoiding Kings Norton Station. Cheers
